If I Could Only Buy 1 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock, This Would Be It
Nvidia is lagging the market so far in 2026.
Overview
While artificial intelligence (AI) investing is still a central theme in the market, some of the key players in that space haven't been doing so hot lately. Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is one of them. It's down by more than 16% from its all-time high. Furthermore, it's only up around 6% this year, trailing the market's nearly 9% gains, as measured by the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC). So not only has it been a poor performer overall, but the most basic investment an investor can make is outperforming it.
However, I think the time is coming for Nvidia's stock trend to turn around. If I were handcuffed and only allowed to buy one AI stock, I think it would be Nvidia. The company still stands right at the center of the AI build-out, and with massive growth in store, it's a smart buy now.
